Sony reveals PlayStation 5 and video games on the way for new console

Sony unveiled an impressive roster of video games in the works for its PlayStation 5 launch later this year and finally gave a peek at what the new console looks like. But the big reveal was the futuristic console with a black-center sandwiched between artsy white waves. A slightly thinner digital PS5 model without a disc player was also revealed for players who want to deal with only downloaded games. "I think the hardware was one of the most exciting things we got to see," said Geoff Keighley, who hosted Summer Game Fest video shows on the YouTube Gaming channel before and after Sony's event said most weren't sure a console would be revealed. The console "feels like stands on its own. It has a towering presence to it," he said.. Jim Ryan, president & CEO of Sony Interactive Entertainment, during the pre-recorded video event described the PS5 as "our most striking console design yet."
